The Dine Out game still isn't working! The "together option isn't visible, IE Dance together, beachcomb together, Also requesting a table with a group or on a date. My Sim won't be seated to a table. I really miss having my Sims go on dates.

This is a known issue. See Can't request table in restaurant on a date. Naynaygray Your Sims can still go on dates. There are plenty of other places for dates besides the restaurants. You might even find that some of them are more fun than going out to eat.

I had my sims go on a date through the regular ask on a date and through the new cupid's corner date and on both dates you cannot get a table at a restaurant. The whole purpose of the dine out package was so that your sims can dine out, so when will this be fixed? I have also had them get food from the bar but what is the point of dine out if it doesn't work when my sims are on a date!

I'm also unable to let my sims Dine Out. I click on Request a Table and nothing happens. My poor sim's celebration dinner I was planning and setting up for human weeks was utterly ruined. But, they'll probably fix Wedding Stories and Dine Out again pretty soon.
So, I won't sweat it. I just have to play a different Save until my story can progress.

  Do you use mods? If so, remove your Mods folder and see if you have better luck. If not, then do a game repair and see if that helps. I love taking my Sims out to dine and have also had moments where it just utterly failed. When I tried to set up a Date, as in prior to Lovestruck, I had the problem of not being able to request a table. Even Carl's Dine Out Reloaded mod wasn't helping. What I do now is have one of my Sims ask their sweetheart to create a date. Dining out isn't fully functional, as before, but they do get a table. If you take them to a bar, they can get food, at least.

    Thank you for your suggestion. I tried it, but still does not work.

Before you have a Sim request a table, find the action interaction. I believe it's under the Friendly category. Make them a group. This should allow for them to be seated together. I was able to have my five University Teens dine together, just yesterday. However, Let's Dine Out is still borked. While I had one Sim order for them, the group were served their beverages, but their pizza never arrived. I ended up having to cheat them full, before I had them pay their tab and go back to their dorm at Britechester-U. If you want a Sim couple to go out and dine, use the new Lovestruck interaction by having one Sim ask the other to create a date. Hope this helps. I, too, really love sending my couples out to dine. Makes for a fun date.

Dine Out not working. Sims cannot go out on a date... or even as a group. They can eat separately but that's about it. Can someone please look into this & fix.
Thank you

  I beg to differ. Make them a group, first, before you request a table.

  How do you make them a group

    There should be an interaction under Friendly. It's either Activities, or Actions. From there you can have your active create a Group. Best of luck.

  ??? Kind of a snarky answer? Everyone knows that there are other locations for dates, but for a whole pack to be broken for two months is wild and a patch came and it wasn’t even addressed.
  Dinner dates are a large part of many players gameplay, and it’s even more annoying that there’s no communication about when it’ll be fixed. And they’re marketing the wheels off the new pack which is cool but it’s so frustrating it’s like why would I pay for a new pack when you’re leaving one of my most used features that I paid extra money for broken for months with no sign of when it will be fixed.

    Welcome to EA. I do have to say that at least with Sims 4, they are making a more concerted effort to fix things.

  I totally agree, and the game is set up to go to a restaurant. Look at the challenges it gives you.

    I had the initial can't request a table crop up when I first tried to send my Sims on a date, unaffiliated with Lovestruck. I have since found I can send a group. You just have to form the group before they request a table.
    As for a date, I have also discovered if I have my active Sim ask the other Sim to create a date, they can go out to dine.
